Dear Gerald Tyler - extracts from a correspondence no.1

28/11/2014

Leah here. 

I never know when it is a good time to contact people with whom I have had a secret conversation with their creative work - either when I have something that I can physically hand-over to them - and say tadah - here is my response to your work - or whether I just dive in and say - well, this is what I have been smudging around and this is what I've been dreaming about! To be honest I don't think that it has ever truly happened like that - either way... I…

Outside of my comfort zone

Outside of my comfort zone, sometimes a good place to start, or at least - it makes me sit up and pay attention. 

And so it was that my first art project as Artist in Residence with National Theatre Wales began - outside of my comfort zone.

REVIEW RICHARD III OMIDAZE PRODUCTIONS, WMC BY KATE CHADWICK

The atmospheric roof space at the Wales Millennium Centre was the perfect choice for director Yvonne Murphy in which to stage this promenade style performance of Richard III.

I must admit, I was a little apprehensive of both the all female cast and the prospect of standing for what is when performed as written a three-hour play. However, when I entered the space and the performance began these thoughts were lost from my mind.
